BattleBots Beat: The Flipper Frenzy

Senor Weaselo - September 12, 2019September 12, 2019

Welcome back to the Beat! Last time, RailGun Max won the battle of Shanghai, "Holy crap Bronco's 0-2" got replaced with "Holy ultra crap Bronco's 0-3," and a whole bunch of cut fights that will go onto the BattleBots YouTube page sometime after the season ends. Oh, and Gigabyte might

BattleBots Beat: HUGE Implications

Senor Weaselo - September 5, 2019September 5, 2019

Welcome back to the Beat! Last time out, Tombstone and Gruff gave a Fight of the Year nominee, Bombshell and Captain Shrederator created the 0-4 club, and Death Roll became the first robot to go 4-0. Teams are finishing up their regular seasons, because it seems like this week and

BattleBots Beat: Okay, Panic

Senor Weaselo - August 29, 2019August 29, 2019

Welcome back to the Beat! Last time out, Yeti made Redshirt sad, Bronco went retro, and HyperShock still couldn't beat Bite Force. That's okay, nobody else currently in the field can! This has been your reminder that the only robot to beat Bite Force in 3+ seasons is Chomp with

BattleBots Beat: Mo’ to 3-0

Senor Weaselo - August 22, 2019August 21, 2019

Welcome back to the Beat! Last time out we had Witch Doctor send Whiplash crashing for the first time this year, HUGE gashed Gigabyte, and Deep Six caused a hole in the Box, Nelly, and the space-time continuum. This time out we have two bots with the exact same record

BattleBots Beat: Some of This Might Go Badly

Senor Weaselo - August 15, 2019August 14, 2019

Welcome back to the Beat, where we get severals, nay, fews of +1s on the Reddits! Good news, I haven't gotten angry cease & desist messages from anyone, so… yay? Anyway, last time was the midseason roundtable where robots got together and yelled their opinions on this season. As for

Another Jets Preview in the Underworld, 2019 Edition

Senor Weaselo - August 13, 2019August 13, 2019

Right, this. Uh, shit. I haven't been down in a while, being busy and all. Eh, let's start this and I imagine someone will call and yell at me. So! Another year, another Jets preview. Oh, another coach, this time replacing Todd "Not Sally" Bowles https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uhIt69v0yzY (I've wanted to use that for a

BattleBots Beat: “Alexa, Play Despacito”

Senor Weaselo - August 1, 2019July 31, 2019

Hi everyone and welcome back to the Beat! Last time out, Tombstone broke everyone's bracket projections by catching on fire, Death Roll broke some more projections by possibly sidelining Quantum and moving to 3-0, and Cobalt did not break more bracket projections, just its front wedge attachment and Bombshell's dreams.

BattleBots Beat: Break Stuff

Senor Weaselo - July 25, 2019July 24, 2019

Hi everyone, and welcome back to the Beat! Last time out we saw dueling flippers with drastically different outcomes, as Hydra used gravity to break WAR Hawk into its separate components while Bronco debuted and got shredded by Bite Force. Plus we saw HyperShock decapitate Monsoon and Skorpios double-decapitate Sidewinder.

BattleBots Beat: Oh Yeah…

Senor Weaselo - July 18, 2019July 18, 2019

Welcome back to the Beat! Last time, Witch Doctor played American air hockey, Shatter! came down upon Wan Hoo's head, even if they didn't make sure they were dead, and Whiplash tanked Son of Whyachi enough to flip it over. This week we have a continuation of changing partners, many

BattleBots Beat: Family Feud

Senor Weaselo - July 11, 2019July 9, 2019

First off, Louie Anderson is my Family Feud host if not just for this: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9QMJousotj0 And he's still alive, which is both surprising and heartwarming. Second off, welcome back to the Beat! Last time out, the floor winning became a meme, Tombstone slashed SawBlaze, and Nelly the Ellybot tasted the rainbow, motherfucker. This

BattleBots Beat: Beyond BONKers

Senor Weaselo - July 4, 2019July 4, 2019

Hello, and welcome back to the Beat! We are doing absolutely nothing special for the 4th of July, so there. Last time out Rikki watched the fights so I didn't have to! Or get to. I'm still most of the episode down. Either way, he did a good job. Also Bite
